Ingredients

• 4 pieces Carrot (medium, peeled and ends trimmed)
• 3 tablespoons Coconut Aminos
• 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground Cumin
• 1 tablespoon Avocado Oil
• 1 cup Filtered Water
• 4 pieces Paleo-Friendly Vegan Hotdog Buns (grain-free, store-bought or homemade)
• 1 as desired Toppings (e.g., sauerkraut, diced onions, mustard, sliced avocados)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and trim the ends of 4 medium carrots, ensuring they are roughly the same size and shape for even cooking.

Step 2

In a large pot, add 1 cup of filtered water, 3 tablespoons of coconut aminos, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 0.5 teaspoon of ground cumin, and 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Stir well to combine.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer.

Step 4

Add the carrots to the pot, ensuring they are fully submerged in the marinade. Cover with a lid and simmer for 15 minutes or until the carrots are tender but not mushy. Turn them occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Once cooked, remove the carrots from the pot and let them cool slightly. If desired, you can lightly grill them for 2-3 minutes for a charred flavor profile.

Step 6

While the carrots cool, warm or toast your paleo-friendly vegan hotdog buns.

Step 7

Place each cooked carrot into a bun and top with your favorite paleo-approved toppings such as sauerkraut, diced onions, mustard, or sliced avocados.

Step 8

Serve hot and enjoy your healthy, paleo-vegan hotdog!
